The Chair Conservative James Rajotte

I want to thank you all, witnesses, for your presentations and your responses. I especially want to thank you for coming in at this time of night on such short notice.

Colleagues, I'd ask you to stay at the table for a couple of minutes. I want to thank all of you for the day you've put in and for your questions and discussions.

We do have amendments to this piece of legislation, which will not surprise those of you who have sat through this session today. We need a decision as to how we proceed with clause-by-clause. We have our regular committee tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock. I am proposing that we start at 10 o'clock so we can have an extra hour in the morning. I believe over 40 amendments have been presented, and we may have more.

My suggestion is to begin clause-by-clause at 10 a.m. I don't know how long that will take. I assume it will be quite a fulsome discussion. As your chair, that's my proposal.

10 p.m.

Some hon. members

Agreed.
